A Type 2 ambulance is a van-style ambulance. However, unlike standard vans, Type 2 ambulances are unique with their raised roof design, offering increased headroom for enhanced comfort. Type 2 ambulances boast a door-like passthrough, allowing seamless communication between the patient and driver areas.
Type 2 ambulances excel in transporting patients who require basic care. These ambulances, most often trusted by hospitals and health organizations, are crucial in safely moving patients between medical facilities. Known for their compact size, they are often the perfect solution for cost-conscious organizations. With lower maintenance and purchase costs than other types, Type 2 ambulances offer an economical yet reliable option for patient transportation.

The compact size of a Type 2 ambulance is a game-changer for inter-facility transport. With a smaller footprint, these ambulances easily navigate hospital corridors and tight spaces, ensuring swift and efficient patient transfers. The SRH-148WD from Medix goes beyond transport, with features focused on ALS and BLS transport.
Owning a Type 2 ambulance offers emergency service professionals and their communities an economical solution that doesn’t compromise quality or functionality. With a lower purchase price and reduced operational costs over a Type 1 or Type 3, a Type 2 ambulance is a cost-effective investment that delivers reliable performance and long-term value.
The raised roof provides emergency service providers with increased headroom. It enhances working conditions, ensuring comfort and efficiency during patient care. At Medix, we understand the importance of creating a space where medical professionals can focus on delivering exceptional care. The SRH-148WD was designed with this in mind.
The ergonomic design and passthrough in a Type 2 ambulance allow emergency service professionals to deliver quality care, even within the confined space of a van-style ambulance. The thoughtful layout ensures that essential equipment and supplies are easily accessible, reducing the time and effort required to treat patients. The passthrough feature allows smooth movement and seamless communication between the patient compartment and the driver area, facilitating efficient teamwork and enhancing the overall delivery of care. By considering the unique challenges of working in a van-style ambulance and incorporating ergonomic design elements, emergency service providers can maintain optimal working conditions and deliver high-quality care to those in need.
In determining if a Type 2 ambulance aligns with your specific needs, it is essential to consider the nature of the care you provide. Type 2 ambulances are traditionally ideal for transport services because they are smaller and often offer limited workspace. However, our SRH-148WD model is engineered to excel in various roles, making it a flexible solution for different types of care providers. Assess whether your service type aligns with the space, storage, and ergonomic design offered in the Type 2 model you are considering.
In addition to evaluating the type of care provided, review your financial parameters. Type 2 ambulances stand out as the financially wise choice, offering more affordable upfront costs and lower long-term operating expenses over their Type 1 or Type 3 counterparts. If budget constraints are a concern, opting for a Type 2 ambulance may be a sensible investment that aligns with your operational needs.
